Frequently Asked Questions

How does the rudderless control technology benefit the user?
The rudderless control technology simplifies flight operations by removing traditional rudder surfaces, which reduces the mechanical failure rate and makes the drone more intuitive to fly. This allows operators to focus on mapping tasks rather than complex piloting, while also making the aircraft easier to maintain.
What is the advantage of the dual-frequency PPK module?
The dual-frequency PPK module provides centimeter-level positioning accuracy (0.8cm horizontal) by supporting multiple GNSS constellations like GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. This significantly reduces or eliminates the need for extensive ground control points (GCPs), saving time and labor during field surveys.
Can this drone operate in extreme weather conditions?
This product features a wide operating temperature range from -30°C to +75°C, making it suitable for diverse environments from arctic conditions to desert heat. However, users should always check local wind conditions as the optimal flight speed is between 10 m/s and 25 m/s.

Maintenance & Care

Recommended Schedule: Monthly or every 20 flight hours
  • Inspect quick-detachable nylon propellers for chips or stress fractures
  • Check motor mounts and pivot mechanisms for vertical-to-horizontal transition
  • Verify PPK antenna connection and Mcx interface integrity
  • Calibrate internal sensors and update firmware via the radio controller
